Are you sure you're not talking about the boot up screen (with animated bar)? Cause it's not wallpaper image that it uses. The boot screen image is stored in a DLL file. That mentioned registry setting is used when the Windows is in user login stage. You only see it when the Welcome Screen is disabled (which will show the wallpaper with standard user login dialog window). |
